Just got a new Uly and was looking in the tool kit and there is a small cable in the shape of an 8. Owners manual says its a security cable. What is this security cable?

loop it through your helmet d-ring and then loop the free end under one of the seat posts.

I thought it was to choke the service writer at the dealership.

it's for locking your bike!
That is a space age cable made of unobtanium! it is so strong nothing can cut it...

Cool. I just tried it out. This thing is great, and so versatile.
Only a few problems. I found that if the service writer is to big, it takes two Buellers to hold him down. And, after I wrapped the bike with the unobtanium security cable, you had better not loose the key for the lock. Although I was unable to cut or break it, it will stretch a little.
As for the birth control thing. I just don't need it. Been married to long for that to happen.
I am certain that I can come up with a few more ideas.
Thanks guys.

Now that's funny.
